The Bee-Speak encoding is isomorphic to a list of bytes. Bee-Speak is composed
of space-separated units, comprised of a b followed by between 1 and 16 zs.
Such units shall, for brevity sake, be referred to as "words". Two adjacent
words shall be called a "phrase". A Bee-Speak string is composed of any number
of phrases. Each phrase in a Bee-Speak string corresponds directly with a
single byte. A byte's relationship with a phrase shall be a derivation of that
byte's component higher nybble and lower nybble's relationships with that
phrase's former word and latter word, respectively. A nybble's relationship to
a word is as such: the value of the nybble shall be one less than the number of
zs in the word. Inversely, the number of zs in the word shall be one
greater than the value of the nybble.
A well-formed Bee-Speak string is one which, being interpreted as the corresponding string of bytes, is also a well-formed utf8 string.
An example conversion is as follows:
A -> 0x41 -> bzzzzz bzz
